canon rumors FORUM

Wow!! 1200 for the body!! I'd say that's an excellent price point to start on!! Super competitive with all that it is offering plus the price!! I think Nikon might bow out with the 7100. We'll have to see the reviews on it though first. congrats canon and thank you!

Woot! It's $1,199 body-only! What a nice surprise. And AFMA! Hopefully by Christmas

Not to be negative, but I don't think Canon is in the x-mas present business - if they price the 70d just as Nikon's d7100 this means that even Canon thinks that their camera is somewhat lacking, and this can only mean the the sensor performance as you'd expect from a tweaked 18mp sensor. You'd also expect a lot of video moire from a 20mp sensor just like on the 6d, we'll see.
